In a sewage plant in Bellwood, a man ran through, splashing water puddles everywhere he ran as he heard a whirring noise and pointed a remote weapon that blasted out electric blasts, looking worried.
He stopped for a second and then removed his ID mask, revealing himself to be a DNAlien. He heard a voice groan out and walked off before he saw several blue energy blasts fly out and he ducked to the ground before he tripped and fell, his weapon falling out of his grip and sliding across the floor. He went to get it before a large silver mechanical foot came down and crushed it underneath his foot.
He ran off as he saw three figures looming in the shadows with a glare. He heard a few noises and ducked down as another energy blast flew outwards, blasting the pipes near him and he ducked down.
The DNAlien looked away and then changed directions, hopping over a pipe and ran off, splashing water everywhere he went. But as he looked off, he heard a vrooming sound and two taillights to a truck shone brightly and backed up towards him.
Two purple energy whips wrapped around the DNAlien's arms and pulled him back in towards the the truck as the back opened up and pulled him back in towards it as a Null Void projector activated, opening a portal to the other dimension.
The DNAlien screeched in panic as it was sucked right into the back and sent to the Null Void.
The back of the truck closed as a large silver-white mech stepped out and was disassembled back into the backpack of a 12-year-old young African American kid with a short black afro and a yellow and red shirt with a '1' on it as well as black shorts and sneakers wearing a red backpack on his back.
"Great work, Simon," a tough voice said and out stepped a Tetramand and a Kineceleran, both teenagers, holding the two energy whips.
The Tetramand was about the height of a human, was skinnier than an average Tetramand and had a more oblong head. He wore a sleeveless black-green outfit, black wristlets, black pants with green pockets and no shoes.
The Kineceleran looked like an average version of her species with black lines from her green eyes and she wore a black one-piece outfit with a green vest and green pockets on her legs.
"Another one bites the dust," the Tetramand said as Simon nodded in confirmation.
"Great work today, guys," he said as they all filed into the truck and drove off.
Later, as the three drove down the road, the Tetramand smiled as he stood at the wheel as the Kineceleran sighed as she held her head in her hand as she leaned on the window and Simon sat in the back playing on his PSVita.
"Oh, man!" the Tetramand said. "Did you see the look on that DNAlien's face when we roped him? That was one freaked out-"
He looked to see his partner looking depressed on her side.
"What?"
The Kineceleran sighed and looked to her partner. "Forget it, Manny."
"Helen," Manny said, using one of his lower arms to poke at her and she glared. "Talk to me."
"Quit it!"
"Come on!"
"Stop, I said no!"
Helen swiped at her partner, raking him with her claws a bit as he glared at her.
"Hey, what is with you?"
"Nothing's with me. It's just... I wish Pierce were here."
"Yeah, I know. Me too," Manny said.
"So do I," Simon said as he sighed. "My brother and my grandmother were taken by the DNAliens. It was actually really nice of you guys to take me in and train me to fight."
"Don't worry, kid," Helen said. "We'll get your family back from them."
"It's probably too late. They've probably been turned already," Simon sighed as he went back to his video game.
Helen scoffed as she looked out the window.
"What do you mean?" Manny asked. "Your brother and me-"
"Argued over every single mission," Helen said. "Who's in charge? 'Do it this way.' 'No, my plan's better.'"
"Okay, yeah," Manny said. "We disagreed. But now that he's-"
He trailed off when he looked at Helen's face as she looked down in sadness.
"Helen, I'm just trying to do what we all agreed to do," Manny said. "Simon here's too young to be the leader, so I'm taking charge. We have to fry every DNAlien we can find."
They suddenly heard a beeping from the truck's radar as Simon put his Vita away and looked up at them.
"Six of them. And they're close."
"Where, though?" Simon asked.
"Back at the sewer plant," Helen said, intrigued.
Manny then pulled the truck over and made a legal U-turn back towards where they came from.
Once arriving back at the sewer plant and exiting the truck, Manny held up his radar gun towards the plant to see the six figures looking about the signs of the battle that had taken place in there.
"I can't get a lock on them. Stupid machine," Manny scoffed.
"Want me to try?" Helen asked.
"No! Shh!"
Simon then zipped his lip as they all quieted down and looked towards the area and Manny used the radar gun to check the heat signatures of the six figures inside.
"Are you guys sure you know where you're going, Holmes and Watson?" a tough male voice asked.
"For once can you close your mouth and open your eyes?!" another male voice asked, both voices sounding muffled.
"Will you two shut up?" a feminine voice said as she stood by with two other girls. "There could be a guard or something."
"She's right, guys," another more feminine voice said. "Pipe down."
"I swear that DNAlien went in here," the male voice said again, leaning down to investigate the weapon on the ground.
"Well, no sign of it now," a tough female voice stated, folding her arms.
"Ooh, hoo, hoo," the first male said. "Check this out. Another one for the collection..."
And that was all that was heard before the transmission sound cut out due to static.
"What did he say?" Helen asked.
"Doesn't matter," Manny said. "Let's dust 'em!"
"Right behind you," Simon said, just before Helen grabbed his arm.
"We can't. The Eradi-Cannon needs more time to recharge. How about instead, we follow 'em? Maybe they'll lead us to a whole nest of DNAliens."
They then looked up and saw Manny climbing the roof above the plant.
"Typical," Helen said as she took Simon's arm and sped off up the roof of the building.
Manny made it to the adjacent roof and glared as he aimed his four blasters at the figures he believed to be DNAliens as they entered a green and black-striped car and another one got onto her bike and revved it up.
That was when Helen sped by him and swiped all of his blasters from his hands at breakneck speed.
"You never listen, do you," Helen said, dropping the blasters.
"They're getting away!" Manny said.
"No they aren't," Simon said as Helen walked to the edge and fired a tracking device out from her bracelet, hitting the bumper of Kevin's car as they drove away.
At a warehouse where the team made their operations Simon was playing his video games as Helen looked on her phone and watched a video of a young man in a sleeveless black shirt and green vest with black hair and a white stripe through the middle and had sharp spines growing from his arms and face.
"August 10," the young man said. "We zapped another DNAlien. Third one this month. Only something weird happened. We had the creep cornered. I had my energy lash wrapped around one arm, but just before Manny hooked him... he flashed a Plumber's badge. I figured it had to be fake but now I don't know. What if it was real? What if we were wrong about-"
Manny and Helen then burst through the door leading to the roof where he was recording.
"Helen, what is it with you?!" Manny asked. "Every night you're up here."
"Sometimes I like to look at the stars. You know, think about what's out there."
"Out there? Out there is why we're all contaminated freaks! It's why we're kicking alien butt so no one has to go through what happened to us!"
"That's what the Omni-Team is for," Helen said. "Maybe not all aliens are evil. Technically to them, we're the aliens."
That was when the young man had had enough and turned to the two arguing friends.
"Would you two stop it?! Every day it's the same fight! I can't babysit you two forever, you know!"
The video transmission cut off, leaving Helen sad.
"I know, Pierce."
The door opened to reveal Mnany as Simon and Helen turned to him.
"Come here. I want to show you two something."
Simon and Helen moved in to the computers and Manny looked down at them with a glare.
"What is it, Manny?" Simon asked.
"I fed the thermal scans from the sewage plant into one of Pierce's computers."
He pressed a button on the computer which showed... nothing.
"Wow," Helen said. "I'm impressed."
"Stupid machine!" Manny said, pounding on the computer, which caused the thermal scan to pop up and then showed the six heroes we know as the Omni-Team on the computer.
"Those are aliens?" Simon asked. "They look human."
"They must be wearing I.D. masks. I would've caught them if you two hadn't stopped me."
"They out numbered us two to one. I stopped you from starting a fight we couldn't win."
"Pierce would've done it."
Helen glared before leaping up and swatting her friend away with her tail, sending him back into the wall.
"No he wouldn't! And don't you dare use him as an excuse!"
"Pierce found all this alien junk and made it work," Simon agreed. "Pierce brought the three of us together and when Pierce was in charge, we were careful."
"Simon's right!" Helen said. "The one time we weren't careful..."
She then turned her head away and buried her face in her hands with a sob.
"I'm sorry, okay. Tomorrow, we'll track their signal. We'll take it slow and we'll be careful. Just the way Pierce did."
Helen sighed before walking back to her room as Simon sighed.
"You really did it this time, Manny."
He then walked away and Manny turned back to the computer showing the six teens.
"But once we find them, then we handle things my way."
Kevin's car droe down the road the next night with Allison following them on her bike with a sigh. Little did the six heroes know that Manny, Helen and Simon were following them in the truck as Manny smiled in pursuit of their targets.
"What are they doing?" Manny asked Helen as she looked at the thermal scanner.
"I can't lock in on them but it sounds like they're... arguing. Do you think they know we're tailing them?"
"Why don't we make sure?"
"Hey, I have an idea," Simon said. "How about we don't?"
Ignoring his warnings, he stopped in front of a gas station as a large gas truck flew forwards and pointed his left two blasters outwards and blasted them outwards towards the truck.
"Manny, no!" Helen and Simon shouted on deaf ears as the blasts his the truck, causing it to go haywire and start to tip over right towards the gas station, knocking a canister over and crashing as the air bag deployed, knocking the driver unconscious as gasoline spilled everywhere and the front engine of the truck caught on fire.
Kevin and Allison pulled over with a glare as the Omni-Team glared and ducked into an alleyway to transform into their suits (not missing the attention of Manny)
"If that tanker goes up, we're looking at a major bonfire," Omni-Green said as Kevin absorbed the material from his car and Matter Girl absorbed the blacktop.
"We've got the driver," Matter Girl said.
"And we've got the truck," Omni-Pink said as she dialed in Firefox and glared.
"Lucky Girl, give us cover," Omni-Green said as Huntress nodded.
"I'll get the civilians away," she said, running off and taking her spear out.
"I can't believe you just did that!" Helen scolded the smirking Manny.
"So what!? They're getting away!"
Helen groaned outwards before zipping away in a blur as Simon got out of the back and activated his mecha suit, which generated out from his backpack, leaving him towering overhead.
"Seriously, you have issues," he said as he walked off towards the Omni-Team.
Outside, civilians had gathered to see the fire by the gas station in awe as Huntress leaped in front of them and held her spear at her side as she looked out.
"Don't worry, everyone," she said. "The Omni-Team have this covered. Get back!"
The civilians backed up away from the gas station as Huntress directed them back, using her spear as a pointer as Lucky Girl moved in and used her powerful telekinesis to break a piece of the street from the ground and created a barrier to block the civilians from the explosion.
"How come we get all the easy jobs?" Kevin said as he and his sister ran in towards the truck and ripped the doors off, the latter taking the driver over her shoulder as they ran away before the inevitable explosion.
Speaking of which, the sparks flew out from the fire, setting the spilled gasoline ablaze and created a fireball as the Levins ducked away and Kevin absorbed the blacktop, shielding both him and the driver and shouted out as the gas pool lit up and caused a large fireball to blow up in the sky.
"Your turn," Matter Girl said as the Omni-Twins slammed the cores down and they transformed into...
"Big Chill!"
"Firefox!"
Helen zoomed in and witnessed the twins fly/run forwards towards the inferno.
"What the?"
Firefox ran in towards the gas station, immune to the flames due to her species' nature, and got the employees out from the station as Big Chill inhaled sharply before blasting out a gust of cold air from his mouth, freezing the gas canisters and putting the fire out, eliciting cheers from the civilians behind them as they smiled at their work.
"Hey, freak!" a voice was heard and Kevin and Matter Girl looked upwards to see Manny pick up Kevin's car. "Catch!"
"Not my car!" Kevin shouted.
The car instantly collided with the Levins, sending them crashing into the ice with a groan of pain.
"Kevin! Allison!" Huntress shouted as she and Lucky Girl ran in as Helen zoomed up just as Simon ran in and blocked their path as they looked up at the giant mech above them and he smirked.
"I don't think so," he said, swatting them away with the mech's hand.
Firefox ran in with a shout as she ignited her hands in flames and glared outwards towards her... just as Helen ran in and zoomed around her ultra fast, creating a vortex around her as she saw her flames flicker out and she held a hand to her chest, gasping for breath as she groaned outwards and was lifted up into the air.
At that, Helen stopped running, leaving Firefox to fall down once the vortex dissipated.
Lucky Girl recovered as Big Chill gasped and she swiped a fire hydrant off, sending up a torrent of water that Big Chill froze with his sub-zero breath, creating a slide that Firefox slid down and landed on her paws as she inhaled a sharp breath.
"That was close," she said.
Kevin and Matter Girl recovered and were about to walk off... just as Manny and Simon struck them down with their strength, causing them to fall unconscious and their armor dissolved as Manny picked them up and hefted them over his shoulders.
Helen zoomed by them as Simon deactivated his mech while the others were regrouping.
"Did you see that?" she asked. "They saved that driver."
"Who cares! Two of them are hurt!" Manny said. "Now's our chance to take 'em."
Helen looked to see Firefox, Big Chill, Lucky Girl and Huntress regroup and the former two transformed back.
"No, not until we talk."
She zipped off towards them as Manny looked after them.
"Helen!"
"Maybe she has a point," Simon said as he followed her and Manny sighed as he took the Levins back to the truck.
"Where are Kevin and Allison?" Lucky Girl asked.
"Gone," Omni-Green said as Omni-Pink sighed as the truck drove away, prisoners in tow.
Later, at Gwen and Becky's house in the latter's room, Ben and Becky paced angrily around the room.
"Okay, seriously," Becky said. "What kind of teenage superheroes use their own home as a headquarters. We need to find another place to work our operations in town."
"And what really bugs me is that one of them was an XLR8," Ben said. "I mean, I used to transform into that species."
"I think that they're Plumbers Kids," Becky said. "But if that's the case, then why are they taking aliens? It doesn't make any sense."
"And what was with that kid with the mech-"
The two then looked over to the bed to see their sisters grasping hands and sitting in a cross-legged position.
"Um, guys," Ben said. "You can jump in at any time."
"Shh!" Gwen said. "Quiet. We're trying to concentrate."
"On what?" Becky asked.
"It's a trick that Grandma Verdona taught us just yesterday," Jen said. "We're at one with the cosmic mana, feeling the energy of the universe flowing around and through us."
The two opened their eyes, glowing a bright pink as they levitated above Becky's bed.
"Groovy," Ben smirked. "And you're doing this why?"
"So that we can locate Kevin and Allison," Gwen said. "Which we have."
The two then broke their hold and smiled.
"Now, all we have to do is rescue them," Jen said.
"Oh, is that all?" Becky said as they ran out. "But one question. Without Kevin, how are we going to get them?"
Meanwhile, in Manny and Helen's hideout, the Levins were in a force field ball that levitated above a generator as Simon stood by while his friends argued.
"What were you thinking?!" Manny shouted. "We had them on the ropes! We could've nailed six monsters at once!"
"Monsters?" Kevin asked as he and his sister glared. "That's a laugh coming from a Halloween reject like you!"
Manny glared as he stomped over to the forcefield.
"Sounds like the alien dirtbag is asking for another whooping!"
"Let us out of this bubble and then we'll see what you got!" Allison shouted. "You're talking to a kickboxing champion here!"
"Quiet you three!" Helen shouted, getting the other's attention. "You sound like a couple of six-year-olds fighting on the playground!"
"I am not anything like him!" Manny, Kevin and Allison shouted in unison.
Manny reached his four arms inside the forcefield and practically manhandled Allison's face as she shouted out as he reached out for the non-existent mask.
"Manny, stop!" Simon shouted as he activated his mech and swatted his friend away from them. "There's no mask!"
"That's my sister's face, you jerk!" Kevin shouted.
"It doesn't matter!" Manny shouted. "They're aliens and I say we feed them to the Eradi-Cannon."
"The who what now?" Allison asked.
"A disintegrator beam," Manny explained, gesturing to the device in the truck. "It turns scum like you two into dust."
"Um, that's not a disintegrator, you idiot," Kevin said. "It's a Null Void projector."
"A Null Void what who?" Simon asked as he raised his eyebrow.
"It's probably a Mk. I," Allison said. "It's a museum piece. And you are a pinhead."
Manny stuck his blasters out and fired at the Levins, knocking them out as they groaned in pain.
"Why did you do that?!" Helen asked as Manny blew the smoke off his blasters.
"They were getting on my nerves."
"What if they're not aliens?" Simon asked.
"You saw their powers, they've got to be aliens. I'll prove it to you two."
Manny picked up the video projector and activated the alien diary.
"Careful with that!" Helen shouted.
"Relax," Manny said, turning on the video.
"I'm still working on that list of aliens we fried," Pierce said in the video, showing the aliens. "It's not complete but... Ectonurite. Piscciss Volann. Pyronite. Vulpimancer. Rhopaloceran. Eurosian. Cryosprite. Felineko."
"There's gotta be one like them in here!" Manny shouted.
"Manny, listen to me," Helen said as Simon stood by with a concerned look. "Those guys, whatever they are, have a Plumbers' badge."
"So?"
"There was something in Pierce's diary. One of the aliens we nailed last summer, he had one too."
"Big deal. If they have a badge, it's a fake. Him and his pals, they're all dirty alien freaks!"
"Then why would they save that driver?" Helen asked. "Why did they stop the truck from exploding?"
"I don't know. And I don't care. They're all aliens. And you know what we do with aliens."
"One of them clearly didn't use any powers," Simon stated. "She just had weapons. And not even highly advanced ones either."
Allison groaned as she stirred and reached her hand into her pocket without Manny noticing.
Meanwhile, downtown, Ben, Jen, Gwen and Becky were sitting in a bus that drove down the road as Ben groaned, annoyed.
"Seriously," Gwen said. "What kind of superheroes take the bus?"
"None of us can drive," Jen said. "What do you want us to do?"
"'Hi, Mom,'" Ben began. "'We have to go fight some aliens. Can you give us a ride?'"
"Okay, whatever," Becky sighed. "We're just worried, that's all."
"About Kevin and Allison?"
"Yeah, what else?" Becky asked. "We need to find them before, well, something bad happened."
"Not that I care about Kevin anyway," Gwen sighed. "I mean, how could anyone care about someone who's that rude and undependable and annoying!? It's ridiculous! How could you even say something like that?'
"Actually," Ben said, raising an eyebrow. "We didn't say anything."
"I know that look, Gwen," Jen smiled as she moved in closer to her redhead cousin. "It's the same look I had all over my face when I started falling for Justin."
"Aw man," Gwen said as she sat down on the railing as the bus moved forward and the Anodite hybrids tracked down their friends' mana.
Little did they know, their moves were being tracked by Helen with the radar gun.
"Aliens," she said. "Headed this way."
Manny spun his blasters with a smirk as he handled his energy lash and Simon activated his mech suit with a smile and Helen smirked as she rushed by and grabbed a blaster and an energy lash herself.
"Okay. Move out," Manny said.
As the three walked out to greet their targets, Allison looked out, worriedly as she shook her brother awake.
"How close are they?" Simon asked.
"Very."
They looked to see the Omni-Twins along with Lucky Girl and Huntress walking up to them in a single-file line and Omni-Green whipped out his green energy swords with a glare.
"Now give us back our friends!" Lucky Girl said as Huntress aimed her bow at the Tetramand.
"Fat chance. But why don't you join them?"
The three blasted out energy from their blasters and Omni-Pink and Lucky Girl brought up an energy shield to block everything
"Friends?" Omni-Green asked.
"Teammates, co-workers, whatever!"
Simon glared as he shot his mech arm up and blasted the corner of the building directly above.
"Hey, I'm not the one who-"
Omni-Green was interrupted as large rocks from the building fell on top of him, causing him to groan out in pain and fall to the ground, dazed.
"Ben!" his sister shouted as she stuck her arm outwards and her blaster appeared from her gauntlet, blasting a pink energy beam out that blasted Manny, sending him sprawling to the ground.
Inside the warehouse, Allison groaned as Kevin held her.
"I think our rescuers need rescuing, little bro," she said.
She then reached around in her pocket before she immediately saw her childhood key necklace to match her brother's lock necklace dangling from her neck as she looked to him and he nodded. Allison grabbed the key and focused as she absorbed the metallic material, coating her entire arm and she morphed it into a blade.
"I guess it'll have to do."
She shouted out and thrust her arm down into the forcefield, grunting out in effort as she felt the shock from it as she reached down to the generator and Kevin looked concerned about her.
"Maybe you should-"
"No!" she shouted. "I can do this."
She then shouted out as she stabbed her blade arm into the generator, destroying it and deactivating the force field around them as they fell down to the ground.
"Nice one."
"Four-armed freak's not the only tough one around."
Allison then activated her Matter Girl suit and the two then absorbed the metal and concrete from the ground.
The rest of the team ducked down and cowered behind a stone barrier, avoiding all of the energy blasts that were thrust at them as Huntress looked over Omni-Green and Lucky Girl as they ducked down.
"Come on, Ben!" Huntress said, picking him up and slapping him across the face. "I need a little help here!"
Manny looked over his shoulder to see Matter Girl and Kevin run in with a smile and he gained a shocked look upon his face as they smirked.
"Nothing like a little iron in your diet to perk you right up," Kevin smirked.
Manny and Kevin then leaped up into the air as Helen turned around.
"Manny, wait!"
Manny tackled Kevin down and held him down with his lower arms while attempting to slam him with his upper arms, which prompted him to avoid by dodging his head to the right.
Matter Girl ran in and shoulder-tackled him into the wall and gave him two right hooks, causing him to stumble back in pain as she morphed her arms into hammers and shouted out as the three ran in to each other.
Lucky Girl kept up her shield before she activated her fire charm and blasted out two fireballs towards Helen as she avoided them and Simon sent out a fist towards them that Huntress dodged and ran up before she stuck her spear into the mech's chest and then pulled a knife from her belt and stabbed into the back, causing the mech to spark out.
"Uh-oh," Simon said as the mech retracted into his backpack and he fell down with a thud.
Helen dodged all of Lucky Girl and Omni-Pink's blasts as she ran side-to-side and she shouted out in effort.
"Hold still, will ya?" Omni-Pink shouted.
Omni-Green groaned as he stood up and rubbed at his head.
"Man, they don't make biosuits like they used to," he said, getting to his feet and then dialing in an alien. "Okay, eenie-meenie..."
"Ben!" Lucky Girl shouted.
Omni-Pink shouted out as she ran to help her brother while Manny and the Levins continued their brawl. Matter Girl gave a roundhouse kick to Manny's face, causing him to stumble back into the warehouse. Thise caused a wooden beam to fall from the building's foundation and fall towards the Omni-Twins.
"Get out of the way!" Kevin shouted.
Seeing his opportunity, Manny pressed a button on his remote, causing the truck to back up and he opened the back to show the Null Void projector activating.
"Oh no," Omni-Green deadpanned as the two started to be sucked in by the vacuum
Huntress and Lucky Girl tried to run in to help them, but Helen spun around them, dizzying them as she swatted them backwards with her tail as Simon looked on helplessly.
"Gwen, Becky!" Matter Girl said as she ran in to check up on them as Helen grabbed her energy lash to join Manny.
"Now let's finish 'em!"
The two then threw a lash around the twins' arms as they shouted out in pain from the shock. Manny and Helen then shouted out as they tossed them back towards the projector, the vacuum tossing them inside.
However, Kevin punched Manny in the face, causing his lash to get stuck in the sides of the projector.
"Ben! Jen!" Lucky Girl shouted as she witnessed the two get sucked inside the Null Void with the lash breaking behind them.
"They're gone," Kevin said. "Trapped in the Null Void."
"Well, it may be a museum piece," Manny said, Helen and Simon on his sides as he pointed. "But it sure did the job on your friends. And you four are next."
Suddenly, they heard a rumbling as they saw a green hand break through the void along with a flash of pink light as Swampfire crawled out along with his sister in her Anodite form.
The two fell to the ground as they glared towards the three people who assaulted them.
"I taught 'em that," Matter Girl said proudly.
"No, you didn't," Huntress deadpanned.
"It's not a disintegrator," Helen realized.
"Lousy stinkin'" Manny glared as he pointed his blasters at the twins as they stepped/flew forwards. He blasted them at Swampfire, but they just all blasted holes in him that instantly repaired themselves due to regeneration.
Without warning, Swampfire shot out his methane gas from his palms, igniting them into two streams of fire that blasted Manny backwards to the ground as Jen flew forwards and wrapped Helen's legs up in her hair and tripping her up as she looked on in fear at the alien hybrid before her and Simon looked helplessly, his mech damaged.
"Now. If you could just put down your weapons and just listen to us for five minutes..." Swampfire began.
Helen then put down her weapons and held her clawed hands up.
"I'm all ears."
"Me too," Simon said.
"So we're all aliens?" Helen asked.
"Kind of," Jen said with a shrug. "One of your parents must have been human. The other one, not so much."
"Yeah?" Manny asked. "Then how come you guys can switch back but we can't?"
"Luck of the draw," Ben said.
"But look at it this way," Kevin said. "Your human version is probably even uglier."
"You wanna go another round?!" Manny shouted.
"Anytime, pal!"
Helen zoomed over to Gwen with a glare.
"Tell your boyfriend to back off!"
"No, you tell yours to- whoa! He is not my boyfriend!"
"Well, you sure act like it."
"Don't tell my sister who her boyfriend isn't. Is. Whatever!" Becky shouted, pointing her spear at the Kineceleran hybrid.
"Think you're funny?!" Manny asked.
"You're the comedian!" Kevin said. "At least you've got the face for it."
"Boy are you asking for it!"
"I'm begging for it! Who's gonna give it to me?!"
"Me! With three hands tied behind my back!"
"Hey!" Allison shouted. "Stop it! All of you! You're acting like spoiled children!"
"What are we, your babysitters?!" Jen asked. "We have enough problems babysitting our little sister already!"
"You guys sound just like my brother," Helen realized.
"Really?" Gwen asked.
"Pierce was the one who kept us all grounded. The one who-"
Helen suddenly zipped off into the warehouse and picked up the video diary before coming back and showing it to our heroes.
"This is what he was talking about."
"Only something weird happened. *fast-forward* He flashed a Plumber's badge. What if it was real? *fast forward* What if we were wrong about-"
"Don't you see, guys?" Helen asked Manny and Simon. "We were catching all those other aliens."
"What other aliens?" Ben asked.
Helen walked over and handed the diary to him and his sister as they flipped through to see samples of the aliens they had as kids and a DNAlien.
"Uh," Jen began. "Some of these might be other Plumbers kids like us. Like you."
"Okay," Simon said, crossing his arms. "In that case, we have to go into that... what did you call it?"
"Null Void," Becky said.
"Null Void, round up everyone we captured and free the ones that shouldn't be there," Helen finished for her friend.
"Not a chance," Manny said.
"Well, Manny, I'm doing it. Whether you two come with me or not," Helen said.
"What? Why?" Manny asked.
"Because it's what Pierce would do."
Manny turned away and shrugged.
"Alright. For Pierce."
The two then activated the projector and prepared to go into the Null Void along with Simon as he activated his repaired mech thanks to Manny.
"Thanks," Helen said. "And sorry about...you know."
"Apology accepted," Allison said.
"Be careful!" Gwen warned.
"And good luck!" Ben said.
The three then leaped into the portal as the projector deactivated and died down, leaving the six alone by the warehouse.
"That is so not gonna go well," Kevin said.
"I don't know," Jen shrugged. "On paper, we don't look like the best team either."
"There is that. Now if you excuse me, I'm gonna go swipe some of their equipment."
"Kevin!" Gwen scolded.
"So not cool, man!" Ben said as Kevin walked to the warehouse.
"What? They're not gonna need it anyway. We just might."
"Actually," Becky said as they moved inside the warehouse and admired the computers and equipment inside. "I could get used to this place. Could use a little bit of work and some decorating and new furniture, but all this equipment inside? I don't think those guys will mind if we use this place as the Omni-Team's headquarters."
"She's got a point," Allison said as she went over. "Let's make a list of what we could use for this place. Move some of the stuff over from my basement gym."
"Get a couch and a TV with some gaming systems" Jen said.
"A pool table?" Ben suggested.
